Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of (5S)-{[2-(4-carboxyphenyl)ethyl][2-(2-{[3-chloro-4?-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-yl]methoxy}phenyl)ethyl]-amino}-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-2-carboxylic acid of formula (I), prefer-ably in form of one of its salts or solvates or hydrates, preferably (5S)-{[2-(4-carboxyphenyl)ethyl][2-(2-{[3-chloro-4?-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-yl]methoxy}phenyl)ethyl]-amino}-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-2-carboxylic acid in form of monohydrate (I) of formula (I-M-I) or (5S)-{[2-(4-carboxyphenyl)ethyl][2-(2-{[3-chloro-4?-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-yl]methoxy}phenyl)-ethyl]-amino}-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinoline-2-carboxylic acid inform of mono hydrate (II) of formula (I-M-II), in the inhalative treatment of cardiopulmonary and pulmonary disorders, such as pulmonary arterial hypertension (P AH), chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with chronic lung disease (PH group 3) such as pulmonary hypertension in chronic obstructive pulmo

Abstract: A laminate with a decorative layer over an electrical functional layer such as a touch sensor panel, which provides for example a touchpad functionality, as well as a production method for it. It is possible for the first time to perform an individualization of prefabricated laminates with functionality such as touch functionality of a touch sensor in an uncomplicated manner. This is achieved by supplementing a functional laminate with a laser protective layer between the electrical functional layer and a decorative layer which can be lasered and written on with simple measures.

Abstract: A hydrokinetic torque converter in the power train between the engine and the wheels of a motor vehicle has a rotary engine-driven housing which is of one piece with a pump and contains a rotary turbine having a hub which drives the input shaft of a transmission. A lockup clutch can be engaged, either entirely or with slip, to transmit torque from the housing or from the pump to the hub of the turbine. Such clutch can employ flat or conical friction linings and/or friction surfaces, for example, a friction lining on the shell of the turbine and a friction surface on a wall of the housing. The shell of the turbine in the torque converter employing such clutch is movable axially to advance the friction lining into or from engagement with the friction surface. Alternatively, the lockup clutch can be installed in a torus which is defined by the turbine and the pump of the torque converter, and such clutch can be cooled by one or more streams of a hydraulic fluid.
